I'm wondering if I could get away with a lower profile tyre and essentially save £50 per corner when replacing tyres.

Has anyone done this?

Also remember your car is ONLY insured (without declaring the new tyres as a modification) if you use the exact tyre sizes as specified in the manual.

Popped into my local Skoda dealer service dept, to see if their laser alignment equipment had been repaired. Saw there were some nice Skoda pins on the desk, asked if could have one and was offered the drinks bottle as well. Haven’t tried it in the cup holder yet though.

Looking at my first Skoda Scala - Question about servicing

fishsoup · 5 hours ago5 hr

Hi all, I'm looking to buy my first Skoda after years of bad experiences with Ford wet belts and ongoing reliability issues. I'm planning to buy used, and my main priority is finding a car that has been properly maintained throughout its life. At the moment I'm looking at a SkodaApproved Used Scala in the UK with the following spec: 2023 registration (August 2023) 1.0 TSI petrol, 115 bhp 27,500 miles I appreciate the mileage is slightly above average for the age of the car, but I'm assumi

Metallic rattle when going over potholes

Alan_C · 45 minutes ago45 min

Have a listen to the audio & share your thoughts. I've replaced both wishbones & anti role bars a couple of months ago. This rattle started about a week ago & is progressively getting worse. The right hand tyres is wearing on the edges, both inside & outside. Turning the teering wheel on a flat road doesn't create the sound. Only when driving over drains or potholes. I've had on ramps and had the wheel off. I can't see anything obvious Skoda front suspension rattle.mp3

Infotainment System Restarting endlessly

Infotainment System Restarting endlessly

ScottS · 13 August, 20223 yr

Mid-way through a holiday in France and the Infotainment gremlins are back… SOS call fail, parking distance fail and manoeuvre assist fail, coupled with infotainment system booting, lasting about 30s, freezing and rebooting. SOS light on red and multiple warnings on dash. Car is coming up to 2 years old and has had repeated software issues. Could really use some help from someone who has had this issue and can stop the endless reboots !!!

Exhaust gas getting into the coolant

Exhaust gas getting into the coolant

Marski · 30 June30 Jun

Hi, I've recently sold my MK2 and bought a MK3. I'm having issues with the exhaust gas getting into the coolant. I need to find out what is causing this. Is it likely to be the EGR or something more serious like a blown head gasket or a crack in the block? I've only had this car for 5 weeks so am looking to approach the dealer I bought it from. They only gave a 30 day warranty. They already had it in for a week and were supposed to repair this but they haven't done it.
